Default My document grows faster and faster

Hi,

I changed Word from English to Swedish.
When I change "table" to "tabell" (the Caption SEQ) the document grows
from 8 MB to 12 MB.
When I update the table of tables the document grows from 12 MB to 22
MB.

Converting to RTF (according to proposal in this newsgroup simply Word
hangs with 22 MB.

I have deactivated all my own macros, but there is no difference.
Now the size is 36 MB, after updating of TOC.

Thanks for all help

Best regards
Georg

Did you fix the problem?
You can "save as" new name.
Mainly see the Word MVPs' FAQ site.
http://word.mvps.org/

this issue is covered with solutions.

OK Charles,

Fast saves; I have not used.
Now I have also disabled Versions.

I used the repair function in word and now the document is OK.
I did not know about the repair function untils Terry adviced me.

Thanks Charles

regards
Georg
